That’s the value of charisma. I can’t not seethe while listening to Reagan shucks his way to destroying the welfare state, but he was an actor, I’ve got to assume he was good at striking the right note for people who didn’t have the consequences of his policies right at hand.
I wish charisma were less effective, but unfortunately this is the world we live in. Even worse, the only Kennedy we have on the national scene is RFK Jr.
